Campaign to Save Public Health

The "Save Public Health" campaign is sponsored in partnership by several of the member organizations of the Public Health Roundtable. This partnership consists of the Washington State Nurses Association, International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers Local 17, Washington Health Foundation, Washington State Medical Association and Group Health Cooperative.

Featuring television ads in different areas of the state, internet banner ads, and billboards, the campaign will run throughout the Legislative Session. Efforts will focus on engaging and educating the public and legislators. The website SavePublicHealth.com will provide information and tools for people to get involved on the state level as public health is discussed in the Legislature.
